Why does this this feel like a scene from "The Night Of The
Living Dead"? Two posts from two zombies, arms outsretched,
reeling towards me with eyes ablaze.
If you want to play that game John then I would be happy to sink
into the mire with you and bore the rest of this List utterley
witless with pathetic side stepping of issues and points. I've
already started the ball rolling with my opening statement about
where I live. I live in Bowdon which is a suburb of Altrincham.

The link shows that at the very least Yawn probably grew up and
lived in Murkeyside. That he now lives in Bracknell is perfectly
understandable. Firstly, it is far to close to Slough which is
David Brent territory. Secondly, it is perfectly reasonable for
him to wish to distance himself as much as possible from any
association with your home town. I sympathise there. But as
usual, you fuss with the detail and avoid the actual issue. This
is because you are both intellectual light weights incapable of
sustaining any argument or point.

Spot on! Partcularly his reputation as a writer which, far from
being harmed, will actually be advanced as result of this
publication. Try engaging brain before pressing keys on
keyboard.
Right, on to the next zombie.
